THE FARMER PROSPERS A much larser winter wheat crop than was harvested in 1920 is forcasted by the federal department of agriculture; labor for harvesting the grain is plentiful, and at much lower wages than laat year; railroads have more than enough cars to move the crop; banks are In a position tu nuke loans to the farmers. It Is good news that comes from the great big grain belt of the Middiewest as the harvest season opens in the southern end. The prediction seems to be general that the price of wheat will, not slump further though the crop shows an increase over lant year. There seems to !e firm ground for the houe that the American farmer will make a good profit this year. There is more importance in the news that conies from the wheat section titan its effect on the purse of the farmer. If the American farmer prospers this year the business depression of the last 10 months will disappear and prosperity will -.return to the country as a whole. Prosperity for the farmer will mean prosper-

It is well that the Inequalities have been wiped out. or so nearly that there Is no reasonable objection to the new arrangement. The method has been agitated I'm- long and, while It has been late In arriving, that It ha3 flnaly reached fruition is satisfying. DRESSING UP MADE AMERICA A shoe manufacturer with an eye to the main chance suggested the other any in the cour.se of an address at a gathering of the trade that "through a powerful combination, the siioe maker, the clothes maker, the glove maker and all accessory makers should pool their interests and finance a high-tirade campaign that will make American men want to spruce up and dres.j up." On the word of this witness, we have it that in matters of dress American mm are far below the standard set by the male population in otluv enlightened countries. If this inattention to dress details were merely a question of our not being able to afford nine and better clothes, this maker of shots would let us ?ro

unllsturbed on our undress way. I'.ut he thinks lie sees in it a matter of temperament: We could if we would, but we wen t. And so he urges his fellow-makers of wearing appared to dress us up. One may see. he says, more walking sticks daily in London and Paris that can be seen in the whole United States. We care even less for

gloves than we do for walking sticks; we care less for silk hats than we do for gleves; we care ! s for spats than we do for silk hats. It is extremely annoying to this better-dress advocate that we wear gloes only to keep our hands warm, and that as a rule we carry canes only when verenable and lame. That anyone should wear a pair of last sawn's shres is to this manufacturer of footwear a direct slap in the face. He is t,-oing to set us right In this matter at once. This trick is to be accomplished by working on our temperament. It is to be changed to conform more to European mcdels. The speaker did not tell his audience in what part of Europe he has

ity for the country, as it was the sharp curtailment of

the purchasing power of the agricultural population of t lately traveled to get his information about the better

the country last year that brought the slump in business. All commercial and industrial activity still depends on the basic inlustry of farming. There can be eo prosperity while it languishes. It is to be hoped the forecast of a large net return to the farmer for his .nr this year is realized, since that is the first essential to a resumption of normal business activity.

PARTY REPRESENTATION In readjuting the representation of the Southern States in the national convention of the party, the Republican National committee puts the apportionment more nearly on the basis of the votes cast. It is completion of a movement in the direction of giving the states that do the electing a dominant place in making ?he nominations. No state is deprived cf a voice, but where the Republican organization is merely nominal the representation is likewise. Some of the Southern politicians objected to the plan but since it contemplates a distribution mere nearly on m6rlt than heretofore, there can be no valid objection urged against it. Mississippi and South Carolina are the worst lexers, but we do not recall that they have assisted materially in the election of any Republican president. Any state whose representation is reduced can increase it by increasing Its Republican vote, and thai seems fair.

Representation based on the number of senators States.

and representatives, aa was the plan up to five years ago, was an arbitrary arrangement purely. It was iu no respect representative of the voting strength of the party. If honor goes where honor Is due, representation should be founded on votes cast. The new basl3

dressed Europeans, whether it was in Vienna or in northern France, that he saw fancy spats and silk hats and canes. But his appeals to cur temperament, will have to be based more solidly on facts if they are to be effective However shocking and disconcerting it may be to the foreign better dressed gentry, it Is probably true that for the most part the American man's idea of wearing clothes fr-r comfort is a firmly fixed one. He -ather suspects that some of the accoutrements with which this dress reformer would weigh him down are hang-overs of days which we thought Europeans were trying to leave behind them. Rut for all that he will not object to anyone's trying a campaign of temperament changing.
